Collection: Self-Development

Muchas veces anhelamos experimentar un mayor nivel de salud, prosperidad y felicidad y, sin embargo, somos de alguna manera conscientes de que, a menos que cambiemos algo muy profundo en nuestra forma de ser, no vamos a poder alcanzar semejante meta.

En El camino del despertar, el doctor Mario Alonso Puig nos propone embarcarnos en un proceso de transformación que nos permita superar esas limitaciones físicas, mentales y anímicas que, operando desde dimensiones ocultas de nuestra mente, no nos están permitiendo vivir en plenitud.

Para lograr esto, se vale de la metáfora del Camino del Héroe y de las implicaciones que tiene en nuestra forma de relacionarnos con los desafíos a los que nos enfrentamos. Conectando dicho Camino con algunos de los descubrimientos más fascinantes que se han hecho acerca del funcionamiento del cerebro, de la naturaleza de la realidad y de la manera en la que nuestra mente determina lo que percibimos, nos proporciona la inspiración y la estrategia necesarias para vivir de acuerdo a nuestras verdaderas posibilidades.

Es un libro inspirador, un viaje de descubrimiento y transformación. Una obra decisiva para convertirnos en la persona que siempre anhelamos ser y que potencialmente ya somos.

Her own marriage was so painful and troubled that author Dr. Christine Bacon actually prayed for her husband to die.

During the four-year separation and her husband's pursuit of reconciliation, she realized that reunification would mean changing everything: ineffective communication styles, bad habits, attitudes and levels of commitment. Bacon vowed to herself that "this second time must be forever." Her personal trials, despair and fighting spirit fueled a new quest to discover the formula for extremely happy couples.

Dr. Bacon interviewed nearly 100 Super Couples to discover whether extremely happy marriages were a matter of fate or formula. Did they get lucky, or was "super" something that could be learned? Her surprising findings inspired a turnaround in her now happy and fulfilling marriage and have led to the same for thousands of other couples. Seekers who delve into The Super Couple will access this formula, glean fresh insights to the "six faulty assumptions" that often lead to marital failure, and embrace a practical and inspiring redefinition of love that will reinvigorate a tepid or troubled marriage and transform it to terrific.

Hungry for the formula? The Super Couple is a feast of relationship sustenance for the mind, the heart, the family unit and the eager spirit willing to grow the extra mile. It's a small investment in a lifetime of happily ever after.

"Terrifically exciting and fun" (Publishers Weekly), Champagne Supernovas is "a lucid, smoothly executed look at a pivotal decade in the legacy of American fashion" (Kirkus Reviews) as told through the lives of Kate Moss, Marc Jacobs, and Alexander McQueen--the three iconic personalities who defined the time.Veteran pop culture journalist Maureen Callahan takes us back to the pivotal style moment of the early 1990s--when supermodel glamazons gave way to heroin chic, when the alternative became the mainstream, and when fashion suddenly became the cradle for the most exciting artistic and cultural innovations of the age. Champagne Supernovas gives you the inside scoop from a bevy of supermodels, stylists, editors, photographers, confidantes, club kids, and scenesters who were there. They'll tell the unvarnished story of three of the most influential personalities to emerge in fashion in decades--Kate, Marc, and McQueen--and show why the conditions in the 1990s were perfect for their rise...but also helped contribute to their personal struggles. Steeped in the creative brew of art, decadence, and genius that defined the era, Champagne Supernovas is a "titillating ride through the fashion world" (Elle) that offers readers front-row tickets to a gloriously debauched soap opera about the losers and freaks who became the industry's It Girls and Boys...and who changed the larger culture forever.

A CLASSIC SELF-LOVE WORKBOOK FOR MAKING LASTING CHANGE BASED ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WITH MORE THAN 50 MILLION COPIES SOLD, YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE

FROM LOUISE HAY, THE SELF-HELP PIONEER AND BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF OVER 30 EMPOWERING BOOKS

This interactive workbook directly applies Louise Hays techniques of self-love and positive thinking to a wide range of topics that affect us all on a daily basis, including:
- Health
- Fears and Phobias
- Self-Esteem
- Money and Prosperity
- Friendship
- Addictive Behavior,
- Work
- Intimacy...and more

Example self-inquiry questions include:
1. What do you want that you are not having? Be clear and specific about it.
2. What were the laws/rules in your home about deserving?
3. Do you feel that you deserve? What is the image that comes up?

"Workbook is such a strong word, and many of us feel that hard work is
exactly what we must do in order to eradicate old, embedded thought patterns.
I don't believe that making inner changes has to be "work," or difficult or
painful either. I believe that it can be an adventure.

You are on a treasure hunt. Each old negative pattern that you discover is only
something to be examined and released. Beneath each pattern is a storehouse of
treasure within.

Be gentle with yourself as you embark on the exercises in this workbook. Every new choice you make is like planting a seed in your new mental garden.

Remember, every thought you think is creating your future. Each one of us creates our experiences by the thoughts we think and the words we speak."

Life loves you and so do I,
Louise Hay

One of America's most ingenious and creative knitters. -- Barbara G. Walker, author of Treasury of Knitting Patterns.
Elizabeth Zimmerman once wrote, So please bear with me, and put up with my opinionated, nay, sometimes cantankerous attitude. I feel strongly about knitting. Perhaps her passionate opinions, as well as her love of wool craft and her delightful style, hark back to her English upbringing or long residence in the Wisconsin woods; in any case, the Busy Knitter, as she calls herself, is one of the most charming and informative, as well as unventive (her word) knitter-authors anywhere. This book gives full scope to her tireless imagination through a year's worth of projects, fitted to the seasons, moods, and needs of knitters who would like to design their own work.
The year begins with an Aran sweater and proceeds to February baby things, a March Shetland, April blanket, May mittens, and so on through the months, completing the zodiac with November moccasin socks and a December last-minute wishbone sweater. Projects are completed in the midst of canoe trips, fishing expeditions, travel, and snowstorms. The author continuously comments on the project, its history, other ancient and modern customs, and personal beliefs.
Mrs. Zimmerman works step by step with the reader, suggesting alternative methods and ideas as she goes. Her patterns are classic, historically suited to wool, thus remaining ever-fashionable as well as tasteful and attractive. The knitter may easily adapt the designs at will, creating new, individual projects. Mrs. Zimmerman's hints (such as how to measure gauge when working a pattern and tips for baby's items) help ease the way and will instruct even the most experienced knitter. This corrected edition of the Knitter's Almanac will provide at the very least a year's worth of knitting pleasure to intermediate and advanced knitters and may even help stimulate a knitting passion.
